Just to let you know that World Book Day is this Thursday (well, it is in this part of the world, anyway) and to celebrate Alex Barclay and myself will be holding two events. The first, in Kildare, is pretty much sold out, but the second one is in Easons in O'Connell Street, Dublin, at 6 PM. We'll be there, talking about... stuff... and books... and writing... and, er... annnnnyway...
Because this is somewhat last minute, I'm not expecting that many people to turn up to the Dublin event, which means it'll be a lot more casual and chatty than usual. If you're interested, get in touch with Easons to reserve a place, and we'll see you there.
Toodles.

«Oldest ‹Older 3401 – 3600 of 4966 Newer› Newest»Star, I know. And that's why, if there was a vote I'd vote for you. And Adra. And a few other people because you seem good at diffusing fights.
@Dragona: Well, what the pacifist would have to do was email person 1 and point out the positives of person 2 and why the flaws are necessary and how they contribute to the positives, and the same for person 2!
*jumps abou happily*
I'm good at this. XD
And, yes. I think we should all try and do it, be eaceful mediator people, but that it should be a group effort, and not have people appointed.
#ChaseForBookNine
*nods at the wise words of fellow brothers and sisters*
Em?
You still here, yo?
*sips some water, enjoying the cool soft breeze*
That's what I come on and do Dragona.
I have trained in conflict resolution plus I'm one of the oldest on here so been there, done that.
And I think I do a pretty good job when I do.
Having a team won't work I'm afraid, cause then it will just cause people to think that they are, somewhat, oppressed in a sanctuary away from their reality life.
But as long as people show that they want to help with a resolvement, then it's more of a group effort environment where people could feel a lot more safe and comfortable and maybe open up a bit more.
Star, indeed. Though it could also be done on here as well as email.
@Dragona: Thank you. :)
Everyone has positives and negatives. I am very nice, which is a positive but also a negative. It depends on the situation.
But I still disagree with nominations.
#ChaseForBOokNine
AH.So Em is here.
*waves at Em*
*hides under the umbrella more*
@Dragona: Yeah, but if it's done here, the other person can see what I'm saying to the other person.
I do get what you're saying, however. :)
@Em: Trueness.
#ChaseForBookNine
Why /are/ you hiding under an umbrella.
#ChaseForBook9
@Trip: BECAUSE UMBRELLAS ARE AWESOME.
#ChaseForBookNine
/Because/ I \don't\ like the /sun/
:3
Has anyone heard from Rose?
Idk how long I'll be here for, so msd.
Wbd.
#ChaseForBook9
*frowns* You've never said that before. Are you sure that isn't Deacon talking?
#ChaseForBook9
The idea was to get people to try and stop fights. I didn't mean like to make people seem above anyone else. I was just trying to think of an example.
@Ieni: No . . . :(
Most Aussies are asleep at this time, though, so *crosses fingers*
#ChaseForBookNine
@Dragona: *nods* I get you. :/
#ChaseForBookNine
God, I hope she's okay.
I was never especially close to her, but still, we're one big family.
#ChaseForBook9
Um.... I'm sure, i think
*reads what he said on the other page*
Hey, that was actually a good speech... then again, my English teacher said I was good at writing speeches. Ever since I wrote six sides of A4 paper about why people should seek other ways to secure peace rather with violence.
I don't know how I managed to write that much.
I agree with Ari
*nods again*'
Yeah.
Totally.
*yawns*
Adra, do you have time to read my story/stories? (I think there's 2 short ones you haven't read)
@Dragona: I think you're really good at talking abou that subject, from what I've experienced. :)
Hey, Zaf! *waves*
I also agree with Ari, but I agree with other people also. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Yeah- let me get to it
I don't know what you've read and what you haven't. My email says you haven't read Part 1 of the series about Emi either but I'm not 100% sure but yeah.
Star, thank you! I think I've grown up a lot. When I first was in high school I was kind of violent, but yeah. I think I've changed since then due to the fact that I no longer see violence as an answer... APART from with Husks. With Husks, violence is the ONLY thing you can use.
Then again they have no mind. So you're just re-killing a corpse. So is it technically violence?
Anyway, yeah. I'm glad I think the way I do now. I'm happy with myself :P
Okay...
*nods*
*hums*
Oh, and I'm sitting in the sun to get rid if my fever- to maybe break it. It isn't working
Adra, it's a good idea though. You'll get Vitamin D.
Darn internet. Sorry- I lost the rest of that speech, but you got the idea.
Adra- in regards to what you said earlier. I actually don't like that. I've noticed, and I don't like it. But no one else said anything, so I figured nobody else noticed, and I wasn't sure how to fix it, so I just let things be. But it's been bugging me ever since Niccolò got his head even more messed up. Before it was easy because he only cared about himself, and getting more powerful, so he wouldn't get into blogfights because he didn't care, and he wouldn't solve problems because he didn't care. He was a powerful character, but I was fine with that because he never used his power for anything. Now he does, and I'm not sure how to tone that back without throwing in something forced. And forcing it would just ruin his character. But I actually have the same mindset as you, as far as that goes. I mean, if I look at myself- I don't use weapons, I'm very good at hand to hand combat, but I keep that relative to my age- which is young- and I don't have any skill in long range fighting. The only way I survived as an assassin against people with hundreds of years more experience was because I had Niccolò behind me. I actually made up his character just for that. He was only supposed to be this powerful figure who hides in the shadows, but he trains me will and keeps me from dying. And that's it. And he just kind of took over from there. But yeah...
Also, for the record- this applies to everyone- I am darn near impossible to insult. I can honestly say that I will not take offense to criticisms of me. I'll consider them, and they're probably all valid, and I'll probably thank you for pointing them out so that I can work on fixing them. Not everyone is like this, just for future reference, for me, you don't have to worry about insulting me. I won't think any less of you for speaking your mind.
#ChaseForBook9
Aretha, there isn't a chance of me trying to insult you anyway. As far as I'm aware there isn't anything to insult you about, which would render it pointless - and mean. And I'm not one for doing things that are pointless (and I try not to do things that are mean either).
Eh, sorry for writing a long thing after you told me not to... I did not intend for that to drag on so much...
#ChaseForBook9
That's cool, Ari-
Pfft. Who needs Vitamin D
Actually everyone needs Vitamin D. Without it you will find yourself feeling very tired and weary. Luckily though you can get nearly all of what you need from the sun, but it IS important.
Hey wbd
AND Vitamin D, I think, if I remember correctly, helps the body to absorb calcium better. And calcium is important for healthy bones and teeth - otherwise you'll get diseases like osteoporosis (AKA Brittle Bone Disease) when you're older.
((RP Me has a fever Dragona, BTW. Also- Vitamin D is important, yes, but skin cancer runs in my family so I burn easily. Very easily. So i have to have SPF 50 or something.))
*yawns again*
Evening all!
#chaseforbook9
Hey, um, I dedicate to Death Rose.
I hope to God she's safe, and didn't do anything stupid. I hope she is and will be okay, and that she'll find strength and see light and feel hope and love.
And that's.... that's the end of my ded.
@Adra: I don't think getting really hot works, although it feels like it should. I don't know, though. :/ I may be wrong.
@Dragona: Me as a person has changed so much from year to year, so I can understand that. :) I think people do get more mature as they get older.
Sometmes when I'm on here . . . it's odd to think that some of you are only twelve and stuff, because I'm a much better person from when I was twelve to the way I am now, and I remember a few years ago my friends used to argue all the time, but now we've matured and grown out of it . . . and yet, people on here are still as young as I was. O_O
So I get that.
And maybe I would have elaborated more, but I have to leave.
*leaves*
Be back in less than an hour.
And - I think virtual violence is different to actual violence. So kiling Husks is all good. :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Bye.
Bye Star!
Im here xD
Zafira, how are you?
Im fine im fine
*raises glass* hear hear.
Okay hi Zaf.
*nods*
Hey Zaf!
If you guys have any ideas or suggestions for how to make Niccolò not as powerful, though, please let me know. Or I could just have him come less. Or both of us could just have a lot more rp headaches. Because I was actually slowly building up to that- and a few other issues having to do with our link- but I could speed it up... I would have a viable excuse for that.
#ChaseForBook9
Well- I mean, I was cool with Nic but yeah. I just felt that fire girl ((I'm sorry! Her name has totally left me!!)) was a bit... Much
I think maybe Niccolo could maybe sometimes have problems? Like if he heals me it may not be fully healed or he CANT teleport somewhere...like Justy cant perfectly heal and maybe let him help Alexis..
That's a beautiful ded, Ember.
#ChaseForBook9
Aretha - instead of taking away their magic he should make them permanently weaker, whilst he would gain their powers - but at less effectiveness. Like one teleport once a day. Only some of the more basic Elemental attacks... stuff like that.
Yrah Coco is fine honestly its Verecruz
Yeah. She definitely was. Bringing her here was more of an experiment than anything else. I wasn't going to bring her back. I contemplated bringing some of her siblings, because I think some of them would get along really well with all of you personality wise, but they're definitely too powerful. And without any side effects. Well, I mean, if you put enough water on Veracruz she'll scream and weaken, and if you push her into water she's not likely to mess with you again, but no one here knows that, and she won't die anyway, and it was just too much. Yeah, I agree with you there.
Zaf- I've thought about that, too, but the issue is that Justaria is just one name, and he has 49- even if he doesn't know all of them, he can still draw upon their power. And we both split our fatigue 50/50, so he'd have to exhaust himself and then me to have his magic not work properly. I mean, from a mental standpoint, he'd snap as easily as a raw noodle, but I can't figure out how to put too many limits on his magic. There's already some- there are a bunch of disciplines he never uses, for various reasons- but still.
#ChaseForBook9
*hesitates outside then runs into the corner, covered by the shadows so no one sees her*
*nods solemnly*
*sneezes and a butterfly lands on her nose*
*crosses her eyes and gently pokes one of its wings*
Well, when I said issues, I didn't mean getting rid of the magic. It would just be a lot more dangerous/difficult for him to use. There is a reason why him messing with my true name had such a bad effect on me. I just haven't gotten to the point where everyone figures that out yet.
#ChaseForBook9
I have to get my picture taken... :-/
Blah.
#ChaseForBook9
Gemma! *tacklehugs* How are you?
#ChaseForBook9
Oh. I'm sorry, Fabi.
#ChaseforBook99999999
So maybe have him try to be more....social? Like hang out with Alexis and sometimes I feel he's so doubting and the darkness about him scares me a bit if he keeps away from everyone he needs to socialize more talk to Alexis or Adra and maybe force him to hold Olivia he scares me how remote he can be....
*9
(I wish there were that many books... ;p)
#ChaseforBook9
Ew. Pictures. *pats Fabi's shoulder* there there...
((Hi Gemma))
And Ari omg we need to use Google Hangouts I WILL talk to you face to face somehow
Hi Gemma! [manages to hug her without seeing her]
#ChaseForBook9
Zaf, that's one thing about him that I can't change. Well, I mean, technically, I could. The way our link works, I could turn him into a totally different person if I wanted to. But I wouldn't do that. Which is one reason why he trusts me. But he has reasons for being remote. And if you talk to him, he'll talk back. He's just always afraid of getting close to people, because he doesn't trust himself, and he knows if he gets close to people, they'll only be more vulnerable if he loses it someday. He only let me get close to him because that way he has at least a chance of staying in control of himself.
#Chaseforbook9
...upset...
*bows head and hugs her knees*
I'm gone now...
#ChaseForBook9
I wish he would try with Alexis she's 11 and I feel its scaring her she's one other person maybe you could help him make friends I mean if he could just maybe be somewhat close to others his life would be happier...I just wanna cry seeing him
((*hugs* This just must not be anyone's day...))
Bye Fabi
Hey, hey Adra?
I think Miles went a bit overboard last night.
I have a date, not a girlfriend.
Now I'm going to stop talking because something's obviously happening and I don't wish to disrupt.
((SOOOOO SPARKY IDC. THAT IS AWESOME. *hugs* I'm so pleased for you!!))
No you don't have to go, Sparky. Everything it happening at once. It's cool...
Also- you guys, I have noticed... Well please don't kill me, but sometimes when people have an issue and want to talk about it, the RPs and other conversations fall silent... I think once I was having a really low day and came on to be cheered up and suddenly everything was on hold because someone was feeling bad... I get it's important but... There were about 2 hours of it and I felt a but miffed because I wanted to feel better but couldn't.
Sorry-
That's just how I felt...
Like I'm not saying we shouldn't not help them, but... Yeah. Sorry.
Bye then, Fabi. *hugs*
Gemma, what's wrong? Is it... I hope we didn't make you feel too bad yesterday, but if we did... Just, tell us what's upsetting you? Please?
He's terrified of getting close to people, though. And making friends wouldn't necessarily make him happier, either.
#ChaseforBook9
*mumbles quietly*
I think the RP's are sort of silly, to be honest...
Sparky, same. But if people enjoy them there's no problem with it. ^^
I just wish he would quell the fears...*sighs* I feel guilty
Oh... I quite like it...
I don't think there's a problem with it I just...
*hums last part of sentence*
Real helpful, Sparky :P
By we aren't RPing right now, so... It isn't an all the time thing. Granted no one knows when something will arise but
Ah, sorry. That's a thing I do.
If, halfway through a sentence I realise I'm about to offend someone I hum the end of it and then deny them what I was going to say.
...
It really makes me look a bit like an asshole, now that I think about it...
Bye Dragona!
And you won't offend us- we had enough of that over the summer... I don't think the RP would go away but we know a few people don't like it- but it's not like we won't stop talking to people during it
*shakes head and hums at her*
*pokes Sparky* poky poky
That's ok, Sparky. Some people like it, some people don't. I'm fine with that. But please don't feel like you can't share your opinion. I think a big part of the problem we're facing here is communications. People keep their thoughts and feelings to themselves, because they're afraid of offending people, but then it all boils up and eventually you can't keep it down, and if it doesn't come out in a rant it comes out in a decision to leave, or distance from the blog, and that's not good for anyone. I would urge you to speak your mind, just try to do so in a way that's still respectful.
#ChaseforBook9
Ari said what I was thinking better.
But... If you really don't want to say it then that's cool as well.
*tilts head*
... Do you remember what I said in the email, Tesla?
My crack is showing.
Er... Out of context...
And on that comment, I think I will take my leave.
*waves*
Later, dudes!
*waves* Bye girly! *huggles*
Bye Sparks! *sits on ground* I really dont know what to do
That's ok, though, Sparky. I think everyone trying to hide the cracks is part of what's pulling us apart. Before we used to just let it out, and other people would try to lend us plaster, if you will. That said, it is not in my nature to push people over the line, and I second what Adra said- if you really don't want to say it, that's ok. Just know that you can. If you don't want to here, you can always email me, too. I mean, I like roleplay, and I do it a lot, but I also wouldn't mind if we didn't roleplay anymore- there are parts of me on both sides of the argument- so you won't upset me by telling me what you don't like about rp.
#ChaseForBook9
*climbs on her swing and tries to move*
*sighs* I love roleplay its how I let myself be free free from the shite I deal with I can be Zaf who is a caring mother to her children...or little Alexis who in a way is innocent but knows things or Javier who is quiet its way I like acting because i can become someone else and i feel part of a family
Is everyone ok with me making a rant about everything I'm upset about right now? Adra, I know you came here hoping it would cheer you up... I'll be honest, I was hoping the same when I came on today. Emotionally, I'm more exhausted than I've been in a very long time. I don't actually want people to try and help me, either- the things bugging me aren't really problems you guys can solve, anyway. I'd just like to say it somewhere. Also, in the spirit of open communication and everything, I think you guys deserve to know at least that my patience is wearing thin, and if I trip up and say something mean- like, Zaf, my speech to you earlier- I still would have written that, but it would have been a bit different. I made it sound harsher than I meant, but that was only because I barely had the emotional capacity left to write the thing in the first place. Actually, that's the main reason why I haven't posted any Nameless chapters, either. I need to feel what I'm writing, and right now, I can't.
Actually, that right there covers about half of what I was going to say... Oops... I should mention that when I'm exhausted like this, it's hard for me to stop saying things once I've started.
#ChaseforBook9
*has nothing to say about the rant? But *hugs* I'm stressed too. I have been for 7 years... But I'm used to it and can handle it... :(*
I appreciate the fact that roleplay does that for people, Zaf. I think Adra feels the same way about it, too, if I'm not mistaken. I just think I've heard her say that before. For me, it's another thing to think about constantly so I don't get too caught up in everything else and give myself a headache. Also, it''s fun, and it lets me bring in some characters. This is one place where I am just as real as any of my characters are, and to me, that's invaluable.
#ChaseForBook9
Ari I figured I just I dont know in all honesty I lost it this morning with Death. I did but I got to move on in life I can only hope and pray she's okay. If she isn't I'll drag my arse to confession and get forgivness but that probably wont help me but hey if i'm forgiven by God to me it'll help
Awkward.
I feel an essay coming.
*hides under a leaf*
So do i
Mara wont come back because of me...
Oh give her time, Gemma. She is just upset... It will wear off soon enough. She's a good person. She won't be angry forever...
WARNING: I AM RANTING A LOT AND FOR NO REAL REASON. READING THIS WILL NOT BENEFIT YOU, OR MAKE ME FEEL BETTER. I AM ONLY WRITING THIS BECAUSE I CAN'T STOP MYSELF. PLEASE DON'T FEEL COMPELLED TO READ IT.
Yeah... I don't think I fully realized how many things I depend on just to stay sane before this year... I'm not sure if it's because my mind is fragile, or because I leave it vulnerable somehow, or because I'm just crazy... Either way, I know I'm lucky. When I call you strong (this goes for every person ever) for just surviving as long as you have under pressure, I mean that sincerely, because I couldn't. I mean, for me it'd be different- I'd live, sure, but I would go mad. Back in first grade I was literally (and I mean this is an actual fact, no exaggeration) in for recess every day, finishing work, because I got nothing done in class. I'd pick up a pencil, stare into space, and then twenty minutes were gone and we were supposed to start going over the worksheet. I hadn't even written my name at the top yet. The only kid in my class who got yelled at more than me had to repeat the grade. When I was just a little younger I couldn't distinguish between my daydreams and reality. I would see shapes, and they would look 100% real. Some nights, when I woke up around midnight for whatever reason, I'd be terrified because I was alone in the dark, and I could see the monsters hiding in the shadows, but I was too scared to move, so I couldn't get out of bed to turn on a light or go to my parents' room. So I would just cry and scream for someone to come, and then one of my parents would wake up and come in, but just before they were able to touch me- hug me or pat my head or whatever they were going to do- they vanished. They were dreams, and I honestly thought them real. For a while I stopped trusting my eyes. If I felt something, I would accept it as real, but not before. Tesla actually had that same problem, but it started later for him, and it took him a lot longer to get under control. I think that was just because he was so focused on his work, though. (This is one of the reasons why I emulate Tesla. Just one of many, but still. He made me feel proud of my imagination. Even though it caused me so much trouble, and terrified me, I appreciated it even more because of him, and I'd never trade it for anything. I can control it much more now, though.) I've learned to tell the difference between what I imagine and what's actually there, and I'm much better able to keep my mind on track now, but I often get my memories confused with conversations I imagined, or things that happened in my dreams. So I can't trust those. But I'm ok with that. My imagination is also a strong reason why I think of fictional characters no differently than I do real people. They feel real to me. In my mind, there's no difference. The physical world is a different story. I don't even know why I'm still writing at this point, as this has no relation to anything. This isn't even any part of what's bothering me. I just can't make myself stop right now. So, uh, for your own good, seriously, don't feel like you have to read any of these.
#ChaseForBook9
SERIOUSLY. IN ALL 100% SERIOUSNESS, THERE IS NO REASON FOR YOU TO READ WHAT I'M WRITING NOW. THIS ISN'T EVEN STUFF I FEEL UPSET ABOUT, OR HAVEN'T TOLD ANYONE ABOUT, OR FEEL LIKE I NEED TO PUT SOMEWHERE. I JUST DON'T HAVE THE ENERGY TO STOP, AND I THINK BETTER ON PAPER THAN I DO OUT LOUD OR IN MY HEAD. This is basically just word-diahrea, so ignore it. :)
#ChaseForBook9
*pokes Ari* hehehehehe
OK BUT ACTUALLY READ THIS ONE GEMMA.
It's ok. It is ok. Mara was having a bad day to begin with- it just all came out. And you didn't know it would upset her, and you didn't say anything super bad anyway, it's just that she's really defensive of them, like I am of Tesla and Death and Scatty and all the other people who matter to me. You didn't know, and you weren't trying to hurt her. You couldn't know how upset she would be, and it wasn't even caused by you. You just sort of triggered what she was already feeling, I think. Please don't feel guilty.
#ChaseForBook9
Omfg ARETHA THAT WAS A HILARIOUS
"Word diarrhea" god.
*chuckles*
*smiles* Heh, yeah, that's actually pretty much what this is...
#ChaseForBook9
*hands Ari a card* Welcome to the madhouse which insane person would you like to speak to?
And I'm still going, so when I post another long thing, don't mind me. :)
#ChaseforBook9
Hello . . .
I like both rp and not-rp-ness. If the rp left, I would miss it. It took me a while to adjust to having it, but now I'm used to it and I really like it in some ways . . .
. . .
Just so you know my opinion.
And - I'm really sorry we can't just start rping when people are feeling sad. I mean, it always feels wrong to just do itwhen everyone is being serious, but I get that that's stupid if people have already left . . . two hours, Adra said. That's stupid.
If people are feeling really upset, I would be a bit annoyed if people just went right on rping. But after a bit, I think it's okay to restart, because I realise that it does help people and if the issue isn't right there, it seems stupid just to sit and be silent in its absense.
It's like . . . say you had to take your hat off in the presence of the king. When the king walked by, you'd take your hat off. But it would be stupid to keep it off all day just because he's wandered through for a few minutes (pretend that everyone wore their hats att). So after the king had gone, you should put your hat on again.
Like that.
It doesn't necessarily have to be after a person has gone, just . . . after things have sort of settled? Everyone has said most of what they can say?
That kind of thing.
#ChaseForBookNine
*mumbles* I've been feeling guilty since last night anyway...
Huh...
*leans back against the tree, watching the sky, feeling her fever approaching again*
Ari its fine *grins* you're still tied to the bed I just gotta tackle Coco and tie him up....or probably end up tied up by him
Nice analogy, Star.
You'll be fine Gemma- don't sweat it
WHOA ZAF
WHOA
KINKY
Wbd eating! GRANDMA SPAGETTI
*sorry I can't help myself*
*closes her eyes*
Merf
Sorry, just popping on for seriously 1 second.
Adra, have you read my stories?
Yes! My comment thingy wasn't working... But I love it!! :,D
I never told anyone I was so afraid of everything- or that my dreams were so vivid- until years later, though. *clears throat* Moving on.
Um. Basically... *suddenly realizes everything that's upsetting me right now can be perfectly summed up with song lyrics*
Don't make me choose, I've got too much to lose...
And I never understood that line until now... Hm... Ok, I think I'm done vomiting words now. I think. Any response I make for a while will still likely be unnecessarily long, though.
#ChaseForBook9
@Ari: That's actually fascinating. O_O
You know how you say you think so much? I think you're actually a genius or something. :P Most humans only use about 10% of their brains, and I think you probably use more. *nods*
And . . . I kind of envy you, because your mind sounds really interesting. *nods*
Whereas mine is just, you know. Works like ordinary people's.
@Gemma: You didn't make her upset, really. I said up there *points at comments* that an insult to 1D for her is like someone insultin her friends but more so, whereas to other people it's just insulting music (which still hurts, but isn't as bad). So it wasn't your fault. You didn't know there were sharks in that lake, did you?
I don't think any worse of you than I did before, and I actually probably think better of you, because you've shown how you really don't like hurting people, which is always awesome.
I don't like Mara being upset and I'm sad she said she'd leave, but I don't see that's any reason to push you down as well. Like . . . say there were two frogs on the edge of a cliff, and one tripped over a toothbrush and fell against the other one and knocked it off the cliff and then it fell into a whirlpool . . . I would be sad the frog fell off and all, but I wouldn't chuck the other one into the whirlpool as well, beacuse then I would have NO frogs, and I like frogs. :( I would, like, pick it up and put it into a plastic container or something.
So, yes.
#ChaseForBooknine
#ChaseForBookNine
Damn, my dad changed my lightbulb in the middle of me writing that, and I forgot to say - It isn't the frog's fault it tripped over the toothbrush. It was an accident. It was the toothbrush's falt for lying there. Evil toothbrush.
#ChaseForBookNine
Yay!
If your comment thingy starts to work I'd appreciate a comment. Even if it's just on the latest one. With my Mass Effect fanfic I'm trying lots of different things. Like Part 12 needed no explanation and this is actually my first series with a girl as the one who the story bases around. I've had parts before that centred around a vampire called Alexandra, but that wasn't the whole series. Don't worry if not though. I'm glad you like them. I'll probably be posting the next part tomorrow.
*hums* *shoots a wall* Bored
And that is all I have time for. Night!
ARGHHHHHHH THERE'S A MOTH IN MY ROOM.
Seeing as how my room is dark apart from the laptop, it keeps fluttering over here. I don't LIKE moths butting against my head. :P
I don't think my bed being so high up near the ceiling helps, either. XD
@Dragona: My story about Hunter focuses on Hunter (well, NOOOOOOO) and he's male, but before that I'd never really had a story focused on a main character of the opposite gender . . . :) It's quite arghhhhh. :P
#ChaseForBookNine
Night!
*sits there in agonizing silence*
It's Friday night.
And Em isn't here, she's unwell.
My life is crumbling
:( Fours Dragona!
#ChaseForBookNine
@Adra: :(
#ChaseForBookNine
I was on Minecraft with her today! I may try to download it by Grandma
@Zaf: Yay! :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Well that was a strange way of explaining it star...
I know... Em's my RP m8, so.
Hey, again:)
Msd.
#ChaseForBook9
Ari's mine ARETHA TESLA YOU AND I ARE TALKING ON GOOGLE HANGOUTS AT SOME POINT
Um. You might have just inadvertantly made my life, there, Star. That's probably going on my list of best-moments-ever. I couldn't say for certain because I'm having issues feeling right now, but yeah. Thank you. A lot. I think everyone's mind is interesting, though. Because humans are so individual. Even though we have this world full of divisions into countries and cultures and races and fandoms, and all sorts of things like that, we're all really unique. Each of us thinks and acts differently, even if there is a lot of similarity. So... Yeah.
Sorry for poofing. iPad died, and I'm multitasking.
#ChaseForBook9
*is sitting on the roof again*
Hey guys.
Sorry about before.
@Gemma: I'm tired. :P My brain falls apart a bit when I'm tired.
. . . a YouTuber whose video I was watching said "watch this video" in the description, and the lyrics video is made terribly, but it's once of those songs which says things like "hold onto hope" and "the stars are always there, but we miss them in the dirt" and . . . I wanted to share it with you all, for the lyrics, beacuse it says some of the things I try to say to some of you sometimes:

Hi, Ari, Zaf, Sparky, Star:)
#ChaseForBook9
Um. Distant/msd.
#ChaseForBook9
NOOO ARI YOU BE BACK?
Hi Ieni!
Hi Sparky!
*nods*
Hey, Sparky!
Don't be sorry for before. *hugs* You did ntohing. :)
@Ari: O_O . . . Wow.
. . . Wow.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Wow.
I might have said this before, but - wow.
Really??? O_O
Wow.
Um.
should try to stop saying that.
Um.
Rdioactive milkshakes.
You shouldn't actually be thanking me for anything except honesty, Ari. :) Because I was saying the truth. Thank YOU for the honour of being involved in a best-memory-of-your-life memory. :) I don't think I've been involved in any of those before. Well, apart from my best memories. I'm always in my memories. I just stalk myself in the hope of getting in aforementioned memories. I'm so evil like that. I probably get really sick of myself popping up all the time . . .
#ChaseForBookNine
Hi Ieni! :)
#ChaseForBookNine
Hi, Adra!!:):)
Sorry...I'm not good at talking...
#ChaseForBook9
That's chill, Ieni- I LOVE talking.
How's the weather?
Cold?
To be expected. Northern Hemisphere type blokes.
...Why
I don't know why
But... You're American yeah?
Yes
But-
Shhhh... Not a word
I suck at talking
Helloo
#chaseforbook9
Hey, Flora! :)
I'm good at talking in some situations and bad at it in others. :P
#ChaseForBookNine
Hi Florabell
Yo.
The cover for ITS is ace, guys.
Lemme seeew
@Mushroom: YAAAAAAAAAY! :)
Hello!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So excited for your book, ohmygosh! :)
*tries not to think about it, because that is how I deal with these things, and it works pretty well for me*
#ChaseForBookNine
Is Rose okay?
(FUCKING SHORTEN YOUR NAMES PEOPLE)
(ESPECIALLY LUCIANA)
Dont know Connor
It seems I am back.
Star, I know what you mean when you said it being hard to write the opposite gender. You never know how they'll feel! But with Emi, not only is she the opposite gender, but she's from a different race too. Which only complicates matters further.
Hello. I guess.
(What's wrong with long names?)
#ChaseForBook9
Star, I LOVE your analogies.
#ChaseForBook9
It's not finished, yet. I'm just watching it be drawn... c:
Hey Star. C:
If you're coming to Rotherham for the launch I can take you to Meadowhall before/after and we can make a day of it, if ya like. :3
Gah i give up i shouldnt get excited of metting Derek cuz once again hopes dashed
@Connor: No news. :/
But most Aussies are still asleep now.
*has fingers crossed*
#ChaseForBookNine
I don't like meadowhall. It's too busy all the time!
Yay, Lucy!
I don't know... :-/
#ChaseForBook9
MEADOWHELL.
Connor - fuck off:3
I'm not changing my name. I'm not changing it fort ANYONE. C':
Connor - fuck off:3
I'm not changing my name. I'm not changing it fort ANYONE. C':
Guys please- no fighting... Not now
I agree with Adra.
Well, I'm an Aussie.
It's 10 to 8.
And I'm awake...
(don't speak to me, Zafira)
I'd like to halt this conflict before it starts. Everyone just take a second to calm down. Maybe a few hundred seconds.
#ChaseForBook9
I agree with Trip too.
Zaf, please don't retaliate.
Cheese?
Cheese?
I'm gone.
Sorry...
#ChaseForBook9
You know Connor you're a real ass I'm leaving
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Don't fight, don't do it, it's pointless, it's stupid...
Everyone just take a step back, and think of all the suffering in the world. Then think of yours, and be humbled. (????)
#ChaseForBook9
I dedicate this page to Mass Effect as per my tradition, and to PEACE.
This page is of PEACE. May peace fill the page.
*spreads peace*
Bye Fabi.
Zaf.
That's retaliation
Ah ah ah ah, Zaf. Get back here right now. I need you and I want a hug please.
*spreads some peace on his toast* Mmmm. Tastes like chicken!
#ChaseForBook9
@Mushroom: *looks helpless, as these kind of replies usually rely on having at least 1% organisational skills* Um. Idk? Days would be good. Days are long. But yes. Um. *tries to kick organisational skills in annoyance at them being so small, but can't becuase they're too microscopic*
Um. Yeah. :)
Just tell me what you want me to do. :P
@Dragona: But none of us are that race know that race, so it's easier for you to make it believable for us, BUT it's still hard because you have to get it right. I can't really explain it very well, so I suppose I'll just say that I know what you mean. :)
@Mushroom: Well. Still yay! *tries not to imagine itbecause ARGHHH AWESOMNESS*
@Fabi: *hugs* Thank you!!!!!!!!!!! :)
I love analogies. They make my points so well. Like with my one about discrimination. People think it's ridiculous that not using swear words is discriminating against them, but as soon as I link it to skin colour, it immediately makes sense, and people see my point of view more (you know, assuming it works right.)
Also, it's sort of proof. Like my metaphor about stars. I can link so many aspects into that star metaphor, so it's sort of proof that people ARE stars, and I'm correct, otehrwise so much wouldn't fit in.
That's why I do them. Making points clearer and proof. :)
I also just love making them. It's sort of a challenge to get something that fits, except a sort of quick challenge, if that makes sense, and I just love thinking of things as being like that. Somtimes when people mention things, I try to think what it could be an analogy for . . . I just love htme, I guess. :)
Sorry. :P
My point originally was, thank you. *hugs*
#ChaseForBookNine
#ChaseForBookNine
If anyone starts fighting I swear to god I will start to scream
#ChaseForBook9
Here! *offers some to everyone* Try some!
#ChaseForBook9
We're trying to keep it down Mara... *hugs* wb
Well, Adra, how the fuck would you feel if your boyfriend were suicidal, and someone asked you to shag him to make him feel better?
Because that's exactly what Zafira did, because she's an insensitive cunt.
That looks like salmon
Mara, I doubt screaming would help matters but it could work as a deterrent.
Star, I get what you mean. They aren't the simplest race either.
*hugs Mara* HI MARA!
#ChaseForBook9
*takes to toast and hugs Trip*
This is good.
Peace toast is good.
I know, Connor- I was there. But it happened in the past and- well- it happened. I can't change it.
Though I am sorry you're worried- I am too- we all are. But.. Ah.. This is turning out wrong
*shivers*
Dylan that's a really horrible word...
And as sick thing to say...
Well yes, but um...
...
Yeesh.
Bygones be bygones?
#ChaseForBook9
Connor, not helping. Zaf made a mistake and she is paying for it. I'm sure it was just something said out of haste. Just try and calm down because fighting will get you nowhere, honest. I completely understand why you're angry, because what she did was wrong. But there are better and more constructive ways to get your point across.
I never got that phrase.
...
What's a bygone?
I don't really feel like looking it up
Peace toast is good. I have it for breakfast a lot.
#ChaseForBook9
SHH Dragona- I've got this :)
